New and Important Opinions of Pulmo- nary Experts-Can the Universal Con-
 sumption Be Successfully Treated? Dr. Borgeon, leading French doctor,
 has a new treatment for corsumptionl He gives an enema of carbolic acid and gas carrying the former into every part or
 the throat and lungs.
 This treatment, too, is directed at effects | the cause remains undisturDed. What this cause is has been stated by per haps the highest pulmonary authority in
 the world, :. C., the Brompton Hospital Tor l Consumptives, in London, Eng. This malady every year carries oil from one-seventh to one-fifth of the entire popu- | lation of Englandl
 Dr. Payne, M. D., NJ. k. c. F., London, is
 authority for this statement. | The same or greater proportion or | deaths obtains in America.
 Or. Payne also says that one-haf the l total mum Der of deaths from all other causes 1 have seeds of this disease in the system
 which only require some irr1tant to deVelopl Dr. Hermann Brehmer, an eminent Ger
 man authority, says that consumption IS
 caused by deficient nutrition of the lungs, by poor blood.
 These authorities can not be disputed. | The medical world recognizes them. The
 uric acid is the irritant in the blood that
 causes the development of the seeds which
 Dr. BreLmer says lie dormant in the blood. Every particle of blood which passes through the lungs and heart, also goes through the kidneys, and If they are Tn the | least derange1 they can not rid the blood | of it's killing lsoison. The thousand little hair-lilSe sewer tubes of the kidneys very
 easily get blocked up and diseased; and when they do, they corrupt instead Of pu- | rifying the blood. Kidney disease may ex- ] ist, and yet no pain occur in that organ,
 because it is deficient in nerves of sensa- | tion.
 Dip your finger in acld every day and it | soCn testers and is destroyed. Send acid
 poisoned blood through the lungs every
 second, and they soon give way. | The BromptOn Hospital investigation i showed that 52 per cent. of the victims of
 consumption were afflicted with derangeG | kidneys, which permitted ths uric acid | poison to remain in the blood and irritate | the lungs This uric acid is always fight | ing every vital organ, and if there be any | inherent weakness in the lungs 1t lnevita-
 ply causes pneumonia, cough and consump- | tion.
 The real cause of pulmonary troubles be- | ing so authoritatively shown to be faulty | even though unsuspected action of the kid | neys, explains why, in order to master the l dreaded consumption, one must rid the blood of the uric acid i-ritant which in | flames and burns up the lung substance. | For this purpose there is nothing equal to
 that great specific, Warmers safe cure. l This remedy has now the taV0r or medlcal
 men all over the world purely on its mer- its. We have no doubt that if the kidneys are kept in natural action, consumption | and a great many other diseases, caused | by uric acid, will not only be cured but | will be prevented.
 When the kidney is healthy, no albumen appears in the water, but albumen is found in the water of more than half of those who die of consumptionl
 This, then, is the condition of things
 that always precedes consumption: First,
 weakened kidneys; second, retained uric
 acid, poisoning the blood; third, the de- velopment of disease in the lungs by the irritant acids passing through them. Then there is a little cough in the morning; soon thick, yellow matter is spit up, fol- l lowed by loss of flesh and strength, with dreadful night sweats; and when the pa- tient goes to his school physician for help, | he is put on cod liver oil which his stomach, weakened also by uric acid in the blood, can not digest. Because there is no pain present in the kidneys, the patient does not think they are affected, but the
 kidney acid is doing it's work every
 minute, every hour, day and night, and
 by-and-by the disease of the lungs has ad-
 vanced until pus is developed, then come nemorrhages, and at last the glassy stare which denotes that the end B near. A post-mortem examination of such
 cases shows that the terrible uric acid has
 completely destroyed the substance of the lung.
 It is Impossible to cure lung disease when
 the blood is poisoned with uric acid.
